Appearance

When he is out of ghost wolf he can usually be found in shamanistic clothing. He always carries a human arm bone around with him, when he is in ghost wolf, it is in his mouth.

Personality

He considers himself very strong in dealing with the spirits and the Loa which affects his personality, and despite what is going on around him after a big battle and the dust has settled he will go back to the site of combat and ritualistically maim the bodies of his enemies to wound them in the afterlife and will try and aide his ally's spirit into the afterlife. He sees the ghost wolf form as a gift by the Loa and will often still be in the form to combat his enemies. Due to being killed recently he is often more paranoid about things than he normally would have been, and he is somewhat less trusting of other people in times of crisis.


Though most of Ros' personality depends on who he is speaking to. If he is speaking to a member of the Darkspear tribe he is friendly with them and will be willing to help them if they need it. A tauren he speaks with somewhat impassively to them and looks at them curiously. While on the rare occasion he actually speaks to a human or an elf he will speak to them with a veiled hostility though he will still listen to them in a Neutral city, however that is not the case with Night Elves, if he can not kill the Night Elf, he will ignore them. When he speaks to an orc it is a odd thing, he is grateful to them for help freeing the trolls and helping them on the Broken Islands, but he dislikes the fact they don't let the Trolls practice what they want. He views the undead and death knights with an odd sort of reverence, he sees them as beings that the Loa have seen fit to allow to live again and will openly talk to most of them. He will also speak to the Draenei shamans openly in neutral cities, however he will still attack them anywhere else.

History

From an early age Ros had been interested in the spirits that the shamans talked about, while the rest of his brothers tried to learn more about axe and shield he was determined to learn more about the spirits. When he grew to the age of four the elder shamans would finally tell him how to commune and appease said spirits, for two years he stayed around the shamans being told what they would tell someone that young about the spirits and the Loa. He was told from one of the Broken Island's shamans that to learn more about the spirits, and to please them, he would have to experience the act of releasing a spirit from its body, he was told to find one of the boars on the island, kill it and help its spirit ascend while keeping other spirits happy and bring back its meat for the tribe. The young troll was happy to finally gain a chance to delve into the world of the spirits and quickly set out grabbing one of his brothers' axes as he left the village and proceeded to hunt the near by boars. While he was searching for a boar he ventured close to the coast line and one of the murlocs attacked him and narrowly missed slicing his right arm off as it hopped past him before he swung his axe at its back killing it before crouching down before the now dead murloc and started to carve into it's body like the shamans told him to do with the boar's body. Once he was done with the murloc's body he resumed his hunt for the boar and found one wandering around a short while later before sneaking up on it and killing it quickly, once he had harvested the boar's meat he started to bring back the meat, when he gave the meat to one of the tribe's chefs he went back to the shaman he was rather impressed with the fact he killed both.

For four years he slowly learned more about the spirits before he finally reached the age of ten, when he was able to learn more about the Loa and spirits more intently now. He was taken under the wing of Mazlek, one of the tribe's younger shamans as he was told about the different spirits and the many Loa he became confused by the fact that some trolls worshiped and appeased only one Loa while they all seem to be powerful enough to each deserve sacrifices and studying. When his teacher started to instruct him how to manipulate the energy in the air around him into a bolt of lightning he left the village for a few hours to practice this new spell, once he had left the village and started to had cast a few lightning bolts into the air one of his brothers had followed him out of the village and ambushed him into one of their many fights. They fought for a few hours, mostly on even footing and neither doing any real tactic to get the other back down, at this point Ros jumped back a few feet out of range of his brother's mace as he begun casting what was necessary for the lightning bolt and flung it towards his brother hitting his leg which made him call a truce and back down. After the fight was over he ventured back into the village grinning to himself as he studied for the next five years.

Five years later the humans sailed to the broken islands and began starting to cause trouble for the village, coupled with the fact that the murlocs that had been mostly docile to the Darkspear had now begun open hostilities to the trolls. Due to this fact Ros among with several other trolls were sent to investigate the murloc cave, sadly thanks to the murloc's new irrational behavior and the sea witch controlling them they were able to capture the troll scouting party along with Ros and they were imprisoned and they were kept alive by the murlocs as more and more trolls became captured, and strange new creatures that dubbed themselves orcs and the pink humans. When the Orc Thrall among other Darkspear trolls were sent on a rescue mission for the capture tribe members and orcs, while they were able to rescue most of them Sen'jin was sadly killed during the rescue attempt, along with most of the scouting party save for Ros and another troll. Once they had been rescued Thrall among with many trolls including his brother, Zunaj, left for Kalimdor on stolen ships, but he stayed behind with Vol'jin and a few other trolls to help gather what resources they could from the Islands before setting sail after the Orcs a year later.

Once he had helped the Darkspear tribe set up a new village on the Echo Islands he realized he could not learn much more from the village's shamans, especially as more and more left the village to join the ranks of Thrall's army. This fact coupled with the fact that the Orcs dislike the troll's way of practicing voodoo made him come to the conclusion that he should leave the Tribe. After this realization he said his goodbyes to his teacher, to the tribe, and to the village and attached 'Fon to his name before leaving and wandering among the spirits for several years before getting word of his mother passing away before he made his way back to the village for her funeral meeting up with his brother Zunaj after many years.
